8 Reasons to Wait for the LG G8 & 6 Reasons Not to

Wait for 3D Camera Features

Wait for 3D Camera Features

While we're still waiting for more information and will be for a few months, details are now starting to trickle in whether we like them or not. 

A big report from ETNews suggests that LG has big plans for the LG G8 ThinQ. However, the main aspect of this report, aside from the screen, is that the LG G8 will employ some sort of new 3D camera technologies. 

Sigh, 3D. 

For anyone that's followed mobile over the years, 3D is never a recipe for success. Most 3D devices, phones and even television sets just didn't take off, and never sold in high quantities. We're hoping the LG G8 will have 3-4 rear cameras similar to the V40 and 3D is one aspect, but not the main feature or upgrade. 

If the company puts a ton of focus on 3D, instead of making the best camera possible, we'll be worried. So, wait for 3D if that's something you like, or at least wait until we know more about this camera situation.

    Great article, so thanks! My Wish for LG is that they keep the high-end audio/speakers and DAC, and then bump that storage amount up to 128GB or higher. That and a better battery. I have a G5 and it’s a lemon, since I love good audio I’m definitely sticking with LG.

      It’s definitely a lemon. It was also before it’s time in many ways. I keep buying new batteries. What’s nice is you can charge extras on a cradle, then pop them in if you need to. This has been a lifesaver at times, especially in long runs.

    Also a G5 owner, having owned the G3 prior. My hope is they continue leading or regain lost ground with camera superiority. I thought the original iPhone plus had LG camera hardware. Funny you could find multiple sources eluding to this till it was out for a while. My biggest complaint is the GPS has been buggy on all of my G series phones by LG. My G5’s GPS recently stopped working entirely. I did love using my phone to control my LG flatscreen. I’m holding out for the next release, knowing current releases include 600mhz (tmobile spec), and hoping there’s no notch. It’s like buying the cheap ticket to a game. View obstructed. Bad idea.
